## The honest read

Cedar House Design Collective is a design studio that, by its own description, handles everything from kitchen updates to full-home renovations. It lists East Providence, Bristol, Barrington, Providence and Portsmouth as its service area and says it has been in business for eight years.

A recent customer said Cedar House transformed a basement family area, designing the space around the household's hobbies and interests.

A 2025 customer said Julie and Erika brought a bedroom, bathroom and laundry room to life in a Westerly home. That 2025 customer, a first-time renovator, wrote that they managed the construction process and kept the customer informed through the usual hiccups and a slight delay.

A 2024 customer hired the firm for a vacation home in Narragansett, combining Erika's design with the owners' input, and also had it project manage the construction, the subcontractors and the receiving and installation of furniture. That 2024 customer said the project finished on time and within the agreed budget, and that the firm saw a few small punch list items through.

A 2024 customer wrote that Erika and Julie worked smoothly with the customer's own contractor and subcontractors during a remodel and were responsive to the surprises that came up.

**Strengths:**
- On-time finish — a 2024 customer said the project stayed within the agreed budget
- Construction project management — a 2024 customer had it manage subcontractors and furniture installation
- Updates through a delay — a 2025 customer said they kept the customer informed

**Concerns:**
- A slight delay — a 2025 customer reported hiccups and a slight delay
